Fem saker om "We Need To Talk About Kevin"

"Sam breaks one of the great rules of the Impala. Sam has restored and fixed the Impala, but there is one thing he does in the car during Dean’s absence that he gets a particular lecture for.

The dialogue is witty. Jeremy Carver returns to the series as showrunner this time, and he throws in some great one-liners, not just coming from Dean. The mixture between seriousness and light really works.

Allies in Purgatory. Dean meets a new ally in Purgatory named Benny who is quite an interesting individual. Benny offers Dean an alliance — but is he to be trusted? Castiel, on the other hand, goes unseen.

The focus is on the brothers. While characters like Kevin do factor into the events, Sam and Dean — and their brotherly relationship — are front and center. We learn why Sam left hunting behind, and we see Dean’s reaction to that."

All in all, “We Need To Talk About Kevin” looks like a return to form for the show. Although the experiences of Sam and Dean affect their current behavior, it seems like something that they will grow past, whereas past plotlines like “soulless Sam” seemed to go on a little bit longer than needed. There is an arc, and a journey, but also an opportunity for hope. I think this is going to be a good season.
